Chapter 194
“I won’t mention it anymore, but now that the lady has entered, she still can’t see the situation clearly and actually thinks she is more noble than the lady? Hmph, where does that confidence come from?”
“I heard Lily talk about the school’s matter, and I couldn’t believe how shameless it was! No wonder she is the daughter of a servant!”
Before Ophelia arrived at Sunset Vista, Elva had always considered herself the invisible mistress of Sunset Vista, often showing off her authority in front of the servants.
At that time, Bertha was in charge of the entire Sunset Vista, and Mr. Winford was indulgent–no, looking back, it wasn’t indulgence at all. Mr. Winford simply didn’t care about Elva at all!
In short, at that time, the servants did not dare to say anything and could. only hold Elva.
However, at that time, the mother and daughter had fallen from power and were to be driven out of Sunset Vista!
Who still gave them face? Of course, they said whatever they wanted without holding back!
Various mocking and disdainful voices continuously drilled into Elva’s ears, making her head buzz and her nails nearly dug into her palms.
However, Bertha was completely indifferent to all of this; she was still unwilling to give up and was outside the main building, pleading with Glenda to take back her order.
She kept talking about the kindness from the past and the feelings over

the years, hoping that Glenda would soften her heart.
However, from beginning to end, Glenda never showed up; only Vivian. came out and coldly conveyed Glenda’s message.
“Madam Pruitt said to hurry up and leave, as the lady might not have gotten up yet, so don’t disturb her.”
After finishing his words, he did not look at Bertha and Elva’s expressions, nor did he care that there were servants around watching the commotion; he directly signaled the bodyguards to take action.
“No, no, I don’t believe Madam Pruitt would be so heartless!” Elva struggled hoarsely.
Suddenly, she saw a figure sitting in a wheelchair not far away, and her eyes sparkled with light, as if she had seen a savior.
“Bryson-!!”
She broke free from the bodyguard and ran in front of Bryson, pleading, “Bryson, please help me speak on my behalf. Glenda must have just been angry for a moment; once she calmed down, she definitely wouldn’t want me to leave!”
Bryson looked at the girl in front of him, who appeared to be in a sorry state, and let out a gentle sigh, his tone filled with pity. “I wish I could, but Elva, how could Glenda possibly forgive you after what you did?”
“I knew I was wrong, I already knew I was wrong!” Elva grasped his sleeve as if she had caught the last straw, her tone urgent yet full of hope. “You had such a good relationship with Mr. Winford, and Madam Pruitt was closer to you than to any of the other grandchildren in the Pruitt family. If you spoke on my behalf, Madam Pruitt would definitely listen; she would forgive me!”

Bryson looked at her, and suddenly his dark brows furrowed. He gently pulled and took his sleeve out.
He spoke in a gentle voice, but the words he uttered were cold: “No, Elva, this time you have gone too far. Glenda is soft–hearted towards you, and Winford also wants to take revenge for Ophelia. The fact that you are still breathing here is already out of consideration for the past.”
“Ophelia still couldn’t walk today. If you did something wrong, you had to accept the punishment.”
“Be good, go ahead.”
The bodyguard came over, and Bryson rolled his wheelchair back, clearing the space and allowing the bodyguard to easily capture the. struggling Elva.
As Bryson watched Elva being taken away, his handsome face still bore at look of tender pity, yet he had no intention of saying a word to help her.
Elva widened her eyes and tried to turn back to take a look at the handsome man. When their eyes met, he smiled casually, raised his hand, and waved at her, as if saying goodbye.
A chill suddenly rose in Elva’s heart.
She had known Bryson for many years, and she had always thought that she held at least a certain status in the other person’s heart.
After all, in the past, he had come to the Pruitt family to find Winford and. had teased her when he was bored.
She called him Bryson, and he never once refused!
But now, she realized that she seemed to have been wrong.
The man’s expression just now was clearly the same as when he used to
